During Channing's time on the board and as VP of Finance, the USCF
lost $500,000. The board finally drew the line in refusing to pay
$13,000 for something called "Internet Insurance" which Mr. Channing
insisted he needed to protect his assets. The board properly decided
that Mr. Channing should use his own money to pay for insurance to
protect his assets. Therefore, Mr. Channing resigned.


Hardly surprising, in my experience. Most of these "business types"
see such organizations as a way to spend someone else's money, which
is what they prefer to do. Good riddance.


I recall Channing was a 'friend' of Don Schultz. Again, hardly
surprising.
